The midfielder told the team's website it was an easy decision for him to stay with the reigning Premier League champions.

“Over the last four years, we have achieved so much together, establishing City as a dominating force in England and now, when I look around this dressing room, I can see no reason why we won’t become one of the top teams in the world."
